In an Insane Hospital.
YOUNG WOMAN FEIGNS INSANITY AND GIVES

A YOUNG WOMAN FEIGNs INSANITY AND GIVES HER
EXPERIENCE.
On the ODD OF September young woman applied
for lodgings at the Temporary Home for Women,
at 81 I'd avenue, New York. She gave the name
of Nellie Brown. Toward evening she began to
act queerly. The dodgers, who are all working
women, became alarmed She was apparently in
sane The next day the matron sent for officer
and she was taken before Judge Duffy, at Essex
Market Police Court The judge became very
much interested. He said she looked like his
sister. He thought she was suffering from the
effects OF drugs. He sent her to Bellevue Hospital
Tor examination. She remained there for IA day or
two. The physicians said she was insane. Re-
pOrterS went to see her and tried to unravel the
romance OF her life, but she could remember moth
ing, and there were all sorts OF guesses to her
identity.
From Bellevue she was committed as insane to
the hospital on Blackwell's Island. There she re-
manned for ten days until friend claimed her and
she was released. All these facts were duly chrOn-
cled The mystery has at last been solved. Nellie
She feigned insanity and went to Blackwelrs for
the express purpose OF writing up her experiences
The remarkable part OF this story is that the
young woman was able to deceive all the experts
She says, In telling about 1t: 81 took upon myself

treatment accorded TO this helpless class OF our
population and when had seen and heard enough
my release was promptly secured. l left the In
sane ward with pleasure and regret-pleasure that
was once more able TO enjoy the free breath OF
heaven; regret that ] could not have brought
with me some OF the unfortunate women who
lived and suffered with me- and who l am con-
WINGED, are just as sane as was and am now my
self. But here let me say one thing: From the
moment entered the insane ward on the island |

nary life. Yet, strange TO say, the more sanely l

Miss Brown began the story OF her experiences
in the World. At Bellevue she was not roughly
treated, but she nearly 1roze to death for want OF
coverings Her bed was hard as rock she was
fed piece OF cold boiled beef and potatoe. and
was told that as she was CHI ,rity ward she had
no right to complain. The nurses talked so loudly
all night that sleep was impossible. She met two
persons there who were she thinks, perfectly sane

LIVELY CHASE AFTER NEGRO WHO HAD SHOT
ANOTHER IN THE BREAST AND FACE.
Yesterday, about 1890 O'Clock, Dorsey FultZ,
colored, fired two pistol shots at Samuel Brown,
also cOlOred, one bullet entering Browns breast
and the other taking effect in his face just under
his eye. Fultz was passing through the "camp"
near the reservoir in the rear OF Howard Univer-
sity, when he had some words with Browns son.
and threatened to shoot. The boys father came
out TO see what the trouble was when FultZ
turned upon him and fired. The report or the
pistol attracted the attention OF Oflicer RI Dean
and FultZ attempted to escape, starting over the
hill toward the reservoir. The officer pursued him
through the woods to Glenwood Cemetery and
across TO the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad track
through Gales woods. and captured him near 10th
and & streets northeast. Here Il large crowd COL
lected and cries OF chang him" were heard.
While the prisoner was under arrest some one
struck him with a stoue. After some trouble the
officer succeeded in getting out OF the crowd with
assault and battery with intent to kill To-day in

A Chicago Wheat Deal.
THE ELEVATOR INTEREST SAID TO BE HEAVY Pul

THE ELEVATOR INTEREST SAID TO BE HEAVY PUR-
CHASRRS.
A special to the New York World from Chicago,
october g. says: The recent heavy purchases Of
october wheat mystiled the trade for WHILE but
the deal is plain now. The buying was for account
OF the elevator interest. The rich elevator men
were forced to buy the wheat to keep it here. By
locking the receipts and holding the grain on the
market they propose to carry the property into
December. 1t cannot well get away from Chicago
then and will be delivered out. knowledge Of
the true inwardness Of the situation deters free
selling in this market against country wheat.
Speculation has been paralyzed by high COM
missions and other causes and the public is stand
ing aloof. The market is Stagnant. Wheat does
not come here because OF the extortionate storage
tax. Bulls will not buy because they have been
taught by bitter experience that they can
not "best" these usurlous charges and because
OF the relatively higher commissions charged on
the Chicago board than on other exchanges and
the bears and short sellers keep out because they
are In constant fear that the narrow and con-
tracted market Will be "OversOid." In this
event they stand to lose more in an hour ON
sudden 'fiurry" than they could hope to make in
a month. The professional SPECTATORS the
outside, who are keeping away from Chicago on
account OF the high commission rates are placing
their trades in other markets.
